Logging Video Game Times
I love video games. I have for most of my life. I have let great opportunities slip to play one more round of one more game. I am playing Morrowind on my computer again. I’ve logged about 350 hours since I got it on my Steam account. Probably a lot more before that. I have…

The whole story
About two weeks ago one of the breakers tripped and Ben started asking for lightbulbs. When I realized it was the breaker not the bulbs, I tried to switch it on, but it kept breaking. Ben was furious but it was nine at night and we had to sedate him to stop screaming. We also…

Hotel
Stephanie took Ben to a hotel because the power is being shut off tomorrow morning and we wanted away from the house when it happened. She just called to say he wants to come home. This is predictable of course. But the plan is still to keep him at the hotel. Extra meds and a…

Too Tired
I am always tired. I would feel more justified if I were getting very much done. I bring it up now because the electricians are coming at 7:30 tomorrow morning. I’ve changed my bedding and taken a shower. I still have to wait to take my psych meds and then wait more to eat because…

That Dang Cat
Yesterday evening Ether got out again. He did not return for night fall. He did not return in the day. He has still not returned 24 hours later. We are as you might imagine worried. It’s not the first time he’s been gone this long. He’s probably okay. But it’s been storming, so he’s also…

A Hundred Times Soda Fairy
My son has been asking for the soda fairy more and more often. It has started to become excessive so we said no tonight. He’s had three cans of soda and another soda from Culver’s. It’s getting late and he doesn’t need another. He does not take No well and he is not taking it…

Clouds
Ben and I walked to the convenience store again today. The sky looked really weird so I took a couple of pictures. The first is going to the store, and the second is coming back from the store ten minutes later with the camera turned 180 degrees. Sometimes natural art is better than anything I…

Three Hours of Sleep
Since last night’s blog post I’ve gotten three hours of sleep. The child was up all night with me and me with him. His brother went to sleep at 2 am. He fell asleep on the couch at 9 am. I was able to nap a little after that but everyone needed to be awake…

Medication and self medication
I just finished an infused soda. I have started my two hour fast. Then I can take my night meds and see what the drug interaction is. In the Revised Edition Dungeon Master Handbook there was a table. The table was run on a d100. Each percentile had a reaction between two potions. At 01…

Cleaning for my Sons
I just clipped the toenails on my youngest son. But that was the grossest thing I did today. I spent five hours cleaning the computer of another son. The youngest does know how to clip his own nails. His older brother doesn’t know how to clean his browser history. Gross!
